Test Manager Guide
This guide describes how to keep track of the performance of the application by evaluating the test results. This guide is intended for test managers.
Logs overview
HCL OneTest™ Performance uses logs to store different types of information, which you can use to determine the reason for a test failure.
Viewing resource monitoring data
You can analyze the performance of the computer resources, application server, or database servers by viewing the resource monitoring data in web analytics reports.
Filtering report results
By filtering the results that are displayed in a report, you can remove unnecessary data and focus on the data that is significant to you. If you save the changes, the report contains the updates the next time that you generate it.

- Evaluating results in web analytic reports
  After the test run, evaluate the results in the web analytic reports. Web analytics collect data using new technologies thereby providing better user experience.
- Logs overview
  HCL OneTest™ Performance uses logs to store different types of information, which you can use to determine the reason for a test failure.
  - Viewing test logs
    To see a record of all the events that occurred during a test run or a schedule run, as well as the status of each verification point, open the test log for that run. You can also compare an event from the test log with the request or response in the test to view the differences between the recording and the playback of the test.
  - Viewing errors while running tests
    To view errors and other events while a test is running, use the Execution Event Console view. If problems occur in a test run, you can examine the Execution Event Console view to determine whether to stop or continue the test.
  - Viewing reports after a run
    Reports are generated and displayed automatically after a run. Each test result begins with the name of the schedule or test, and ends with the timestamp of the run in brackets.
  - Accessing reports remotely
    Before executing a schedule or test, you can enable an option so that you can access reports remotely from a web browser. When you make changes to a report, the changes are saved to the workspace where the workbench is running.
  - Exporting test logs
    To process data from a performance test in another application or to use search tools to locate text in a test log, export the test log to a text file.
  - Exporting event log
    To view all the events that occurred during the run of a test from another file, you can export this data from the Event Log panel, to an XML, CSV, or text file.
  - Exporting event console output
    To view errors and other events of a test run from another file, you can export this data from the Execution Event Console view to an XML, CSV, or text file.
  - Viewing adjustments to page response times
    To see the adjustments to page response times that are measured during a test run or a schedule run, open the test log for that run.
  - Viewing resource monitoring data
    You can analyze the performance of the computer resources, application server, or database servers by viewing the resource monitoring data in web analytics reports.
    - Adding resource counters to reports
      To view performance data of resource counters that are not shown in the report by default, you can add the resource counters.
    - Filtering report results
      By filtering the results that are displayed in a report, you can remove unnecessary data and focus on the data that is significant to you. If you save the changes, the report contains the updates the next time that you generate it.
- Reports and counters
  See the description of the counters for all of the performance reports.

Filtering report results

By filtering the results that are displayed in a report, you can remove unnecessary data and focus on the data that is significant to you. If you save the changes, the report contains the updates the next time that you generate it.

About this task

You can filter by the number of counters, the values of counters, or the labels of counters. You use the label filter for all the counters in a graph. The value filter and the count filter is applied only on a single counter. By default, the reports are filtered by using a regular expression to display all counters with labels.

Procedure

In the Test Navigator, expand the project until you locate the run. Each run begins with the name of the schedule or test, and ends with the date of the run in brackets.
Double-click the run.
The default report opens.
Click the Add/Modify counter counter for the graph to apply filters to.
To apply filters for all the counters in the graph, in the Graphic Label Filter field, click the Edit graphic wide filter icon.
1. To filter by the number of counters, click Filter by count and, in the Number to display field, type the number of counters to view and click OK.
2. To filter by the values of counters, click Filter by value and, in the Filter Value field, type a value and click OK. You can also select the options to view counters above the filter value, below the filter value, or equal to the filter value.
3. To filter by the labels of counters, click Filter b label and, in the Filter Value field, type a label name or a regular expression and click OK. You can include or exclude counters whose label contains a filter value.
Click OK and then click Save.
To apply a filter to a specific counter in the graph, in the Counter Details table, in the Filter column, click the Edit filter icon and follow repeat 4a, 4b, and 4c.
